When I was a kid,,,
When I was a kid,,,
When dinosaurs ruled the earth,,,
I remember my Mom, Grandfather, most uncles carried a small revolver.
Not one of them ever used a holster.
Grandpa carried his "Owls Head" in his Levi's jacket pocket,,,
My uncles did the same or just set it on the dash,,,
Mom had a S&W tucked in a hanky in her bra.
I grew up where most of the men around me wore a western sport coat and tie,,,
They just put the handgun in the pocket and went about their day.
The only one I remember carrying a semi-auto was Uncle Stan,,,
He was a WW-II combat veteran and drove a taxi,,,
He kept a 1911 on the seat beside him,,,
Usually folded in the newspaper.
Before the GCA of 1968,,,
My sister kept a revolver in her purse.
This is mid 50's to late 60's Oklahoma.
